“And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.”
1 John 5:14-15.
In the remaining days of this month's devotional beginning from today, we are going to be looking at the role of prayer in destiny fulfilment.
Prayer is a verbal request made upon God based on His promise to meet that need. Notice from our definition that prayer must be verbal; that means that we ought to speak. In Luke 11:2 Jesus said, “… When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.” This shows us that God's will would not be done until we pray.
Prayer is the vehicle that facilitates the fulfilment of God's will in the earth. If God's will is going to be done and if your destiny is going to be fulfilled, then you must pray. It is important to note that you don't pray based on presumption, you pray according to the revealed will of God. You can't just pray and ask God to take you to space right now because there is no promise in the Word of God to guarantee any answer to such a prayer. So, when you are praying, it must be based on a promise in the Word of God. This is because effective prayer is the prayer based on God's Word and God's Word is the revelation of His will. The Bible is the written revelation of God's perfect will.
Instruction.
